[edit] Welcome

Hello, Gaoshan, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Wikipedia Boot Camp, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and vote pages using three tildes, like this: ~~~. Four tildes (~~~~) produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome!

Please do not add commercial links or links to your own private websites to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or a mere collection of external links. You are, however, encouraged to add content instead of links to the encyclopedia. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. See the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thanks.

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. It is considered spamming, and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising. Thanks. OhNoitsJamie Talk 16:42, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Qingdao Travel & Living Guide is a neither a commercial site nor does is participate or promote spamming! It is run by locals who care about the Qingdao Community and want to provide current, accurate, and unbiased information to ALL. We support the local government and our site provides expats and travelers with valuable information. Please take a look for your self! OhNoitsJamie's actions are limiting the amount of valuable information that Wiki users are able to gather about Qingdao.

For Example:

"English Corner @ ZhanQiao Pier :: Every Sunday 9:00am - Noon This English Corner is located at the base of Qingdao's ZhanQiao Pier. While facing the pier, looking out over the ocean, you can find a group of foriegners and locals on your left hand side sitting under a pine tree near the W/C. This is the oldest ongoing English Corner in Qingdao dating back to the mid 1980's."

The above is just one of the current events that Qingdao Travel & Living Guide keeps tabs on.

[edit] Simple Question :: Simple Answer

W

OhNoitsJamie, why don't you ever give a logical answer to a direct question? Your normal response is to delete the question in the discussion section and site some ambiguous rule of which Wiki has clearly made exceptions to. Why don't you let the rest of the community respond? Your actions have really set back the progress of Wiki's Qingdao articles! Most of the local community here in Qingdao will probably stop contributing because of your actions! I personally don't care if you block this user account. You act as if you are speaking on behalf of the entire Wiki community.

Wiki’s guidlines State:

"Be respectful to others and their points of view. This means primarily: Do not simply revert changes in a dispute. When someone makes an edit you consider biased or inaccurate, improve the edit, rather than reverting it. Provide a good edit summary when making significant changes that other users might object to. The Three Revert Rule forbids the use of reverts in repetitive succession. If you encounter rude or inappropriate behavior, resist the temptation to respond unkindly, and do not make personal attacks.

Writing according to the "perfect article guidelines" and following the NPOV policy can help you write "defensively", and limit your own bias in your writing. For some guidelines, see Wikipedia:Wikiquette." —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Gaoshan (talk • contribs) .

I'm reverting spam per external link guidelines. This has nothing to do with WP:NPOV. From your contribution history, it's clear that your primary objective is to put links to your site here. OhNoitsJamie Talk 15:54, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

I respect your decision. I do not want Wiki to be a repository of external links. Please realize that wiki is still banned in China! If I look at your history I could make judgments too. Simply put, I just want to give Wiki users a link that provides up to date information from Qingdao locals. Qingdao Travel & Living Guide only generates revenue from the Google ads. As you know, this almost pays for the yearly hosting and registration. The time put into this site comes from the hart and soul of the Qingdao people. I am only trying to give Wiki users the real feeling of Qingdao. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by [[User:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]] ([[User talk:{{{1}}}|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/{{{1}}}|contribs]]) .

I notice that your site is on the first page of Google hits for Qingdao. If someone is looking for more information about Qingdao, I'm sure they'll find your site, regardless of whether there is a link here. You'll notice from my history that I delete a lot of external links (as do many other folks in the Spam Project). Cheers, OhNoitsJamie Talk 05:36, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
